Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a control device for an internal combustion engine, and more particularly to operation control of a waste gate valve.
  • an internal combustion engine has been provided with a supercharger such as a turbocharger to improve output performance and fuel efficiency.
  • a supercharging pressure adjustment device for adjusting pressure of intake air injected into a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, or supercharging pressure.

  • the pressure control valve adjusts pressure of a part of intake air supercharged by the turbocharger so that opening of the waste gate valve is set for a target supercharging pressure, and the air whose pressure has been adjusted is introduced into the actuator.
  • the pressure of the intake air to be injected into the combustion chamber of the engine, or supercharging pressure, is controlled by introducing the air, whose pressure has been adjusted, into the actuator.
  • the waste gate valve is driven by an electric actuator that is capable of controlling the opening of the waste gate valve without using supercharged air.
  • Patent Document 2 describes a method for controlling the drive power of a motor vehicle having a spark-ignition engine equipped with an air charger and a throttle device through which air is supplied to the engine, the drive power of the engine being controlled via a control means by adjusting said throttle device and said air charger.
  • a target opening of a waste gate valve is calculated on the basis of a difference between a target supercharging pressure and an actual supercharging pressure so that an electric actuator adjusts opening of the waste gate valve to the target opening.
  • the throttle opening can be small and the supercharging pressure can be high, depending on a target supercharging pressure. As a result, a pressure loss of the throttle portion may increase.

  • the present invention has been made to solve the problem described above, and an object of the present invention is to provide a control device for an internal combustion engine, capable of allowing a vehicle to achieve excellent acceleration performance as well as excellent fuel efficiency.
